During the execution of a model, EE supports the configuration of the run screen to display specific parameter information for a specific cell. This is configured in the Show tab under EFDC Model Linkages as shown in Figure 1. Users can select the parameter of interest from the drop-down menu, and choose a specific cell by indicating the cell indices L, I and J. When L the index has been changed the corresponding I and J indices are updated automatically. Users can also choose the preferred interval to display this result in the Print Interval field.

An example of the command window for EFDC+ is shown in Figure 2 below. A description of the parameters displayed in the EFDC+ command window are provided in Table 1. Figure 3 shows the model run time report that id displayed when the simulation is successfully completed. Table 1 also includes descriptions of the various times that EFDC+ reports.
